[rrd-users] Re: RRD install woes

[Dan Winslow]

ar is an executable. Its in /usr/ccs/bin I think, or maybe /sbin ( or
something like that, one of the non-standard bin areas ). Use find to locate
it or ask your admins. Then make sure that's in your path.

Subject: [rrd-users] RRD install woes



When I tried to build the latest RRD for the latest
Cricket, I first installed GCC and gnu 'make', which
seemed to go without error. But RRD install failed
after it was unable to find 'ar', apparently a
library (?). The host is a very standard Slowaris
2.6. I don't know what to do but to walk through all
the dependencies, which I am not sure I would
understand anyway ...
